Alright, I already have a log started here... 1.5 years since last entry. Ugh. Also, I've been a sloth for the last 7-8 months... just stopped, ate like crap for that time and undid most of the work that I put in. This isn't part of a new year's resolution or anything. Just getting back in the saddle. I haven't got any idea on weight, I will weigh in two weeks. Just doing this a day at a time. I work out at home, but have access to a gym that my company pays for, so I will likely be visiting them from time to time to try new things and get my VO2 max numbers, etc.

My goals are to lose weight, increase aerobic endurance and retain/build muscles (lots o leg muscles to motate all this junk, upper body good a playing video games and using a computer, core sucks).

Calories in: 2314
Cardio: Morning - Elliptical - 35 minutes 2090 revs -- I couldn't finish my 45. I was very tired and didn't have much left. This one pissed me off, because I could go for 70 minutes a day a year ago. And let's me know that I am going to have to phase it in - like I did when I first started.

I will be resting on 1/5 with the same calorie intake target of about 2300, get over the DOMS. Pretty weird... looking forward to DOMS, that is...

So I wasn't going to weigh until next Monday but I decided why not?
Weight: 313. Frack. Oh well. Still almost 50 less than my all time high and 40 less from when I started, but still... frack.
I also had a body bugg that I hadn't used in a long time. I decided to reactivate the subscription. It gives me some good nutrition data, good estimates on calories consumed and motivation.

It's nice to see that I got to that magic number 12 for all motions. I will up things to the next increment (save for squat and the DL). I am also going to add in a deadlift and biceps/triceps isolation in a week or so. We'll see how it goes with energy level, etc. Tonight, I felt really good.

Made a sad attempt at getting back on the elliptical, but decided against it too tired. Though I felt pretty good despite the cardio just before the weights. I probably could have pushed it another ten to my nominal 50, but I didn't know where I would end up energy wise. Another thing. I need to keep the focus on form especially for squat.

Weigh in: 305.5 delta = -7.5 lbs from last week. Nice, but this is the standard big drop for the first couple weeks. I will get a good idea of the balance in a couple weeks or so....
calories in 2218

Elliptical: 50 minutes
Yard work, ugh.

Probably should have lifted weights but I have to be up in the morning early tomorrow. It seems like that when I lift within a couple hours of bedtime I stay up way longer than I want to and have difficulty sleeping. I will hit them tomorrow afternoon though.
